I think they put a lot of religious stuff in this song.
From what I've read, reviewers say that Lois Lane in 1 and 2 was very selfish and self-absorbed.
This song is really in awe. This guy can fly and see through things, and do so much ... it occurs to Lois that maybe he can read her mind.
What they did with this movie is say that Lois was too shallow to go for Clark, she wants the glorious Superman. And maybe also, she's hoping he can read her mind because she's too shy to say exactly what she's thinking.
The movie's interesting, their chemistry is interesting, but the song is a bit better all-around than their chemistry and Lois' characterization in particular. Or maybe the reviews I read were wrong.
